“For years I've run my big final table hands by Dara. Now you can read about how he uses his imagination backed up by sound mathematical principles to exploit and how you can too.” - Padraig O’Neill - EPT Prague Champion

Game Theory Optimal (GTO) poker has taken over the modern game, but it is not the most profitable way to play when your opponent has leaks in their game. You will always make the most money against exploitable players by counter-exploiting them.

Beyond GTO: Poker Exploits Simplified is the first book to use solver technology to show how to truly exploit weaknesses in your opponents. There is no guesswork or anecdotal evidence, this book shows you how a perfect GTO player would make the most from a flawed human opponent. It provides actionable heuristics for you to crush soft games, including:

  • How to exploit nits, calling stations, and maniacs
  • Why balance is important, even at low stakes
  • What old school players got wrong about exploitative poker
  • How to get into the mind of a professional player playing against weak opponents
  • Specific preflop and postflop leaks, as well as flop, turn and river mistakes
  • How to avoid making the biggest errors yourself

Dara O’Kearney is a professional poker player, sponsored Unibet Pro and the co-host of The Chip Race Podcast. He is highly regarded as one of the best tournament grinders and poker coaches in the world, with a particular focus on modern solver technology. He is the co-author of Poker Satellite Strategy, PKO Poker Strategy, Endgame Poker Strategy, GTO Poker Simplified and Mystery Bounty Poker Strategy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple Poker Exploits
Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024

Seriously, the word should get out – this book is great – helping you understand many counter-intuitive spots, often opposed to common belief. It’s always been hard for me to understand what is that other guy thinking, but now using node locking the leaks of bad players can be recreated and then solved for exploits. In a style that kinda resembles 'old' Roy Cooke, in that these lessons you can skip around as each lesson stands alone, but this is clearly 'new' modern-day top solver advice from expert Dara and witty Barry.

Six Preflop leaks are examined including “Not Defending Enough” and “Bad Range Construction”.
Fifteen Post Flop leaks are examined including “River Mistakes” and “Bet Sizing Tells”.
The Key takeaways at the end of each section are thoughtful.

Basically, don’t tell your opponents about this - buy this book - stop leaving yourself open to exploitation - lean into the leaks of others - play better poker!

I am only half way through this book and I have taken 4th in a 50 person MTT. The book has already paid for itself. The authors turn GTO on it's head by node locking against what imperfect humans actually do (since we aren't emotionless bots with terabytes of memory we can access quickly in a real game situation) to show exploits that sometime seem counterintuitive. While the charts are presented in an easily readable way, the book emphasizes working on concepts rather than memorization (did I mention we don't have terabytes of memory....). This allows the readier to adapt to new exploits as the present themselves. Sometimes GTO book and other poker books are a bit of a slog to get through. Not this book. It is easy to read and gives clear, actionable concepts that can be immediately applied. This is consistent through all of the books from these authors. In case I forgot to mention-get this book (unless you play in my poker group- I like the edge it gives me).

I have purchased all of Dara Okearney's books. I have read dozens of others out there and his are so good that I will just automatically buy whatever he puts out next. He has a great way of explaining concepts that I just understand and can implement easily.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book on GTO deviation
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 7, 2024

Edit (original review below): Coming back just to emphasise how fantastic this book is, even on a second or third read.

I'm neurodivergent and the way this book teaches you the errors in play from a whole array of different angles is the logic my brain desperately needed. It is the 'why' and 'how' that answers so many GTO/exploitative questions.

It's not charts that say 'do this and only this!' because a solver approved it. It's saying 'sure, you can do this other thing, and he's where it leaves you short'. It allows you to incorporate deliberate mistakes into your exploitative game, knowing that if your opponents aren't reacting in the right way, you're printing money.

Original review:
To my knowledge, the only book (when coupled with their first GTO book) of it's kind in the market that will teach you everything about GTO play, then disects that into GTO strategies that tackle pretty much every common leak you can think of.

What's brilliant throughout is how the language and terminology and thought processes are repeated and the same again and again. It's so easy to start building your own heuristics from this blueprint based on what they've taught.

Dara and Barry's previous books have been very good, and this is no different. It's obvious the amount of work they put into their books and the passion they have for the game.
So many actionable tips for making the right adjustments to exploit different leaks and the book has also helped me notice some of my own leaks to work on.
Top work as always gents

GTO theory is the best default strategy. Though in order to be a complete player you have to know when to and how to best play more exploitatively. I like this book because it's really easy to read and the information is very scientific - find you're own weakness and the weaknesses of other players. - It does what it says on the cover - It will take you beyond GTO and possibly anybody you will ever play against.

Another excellent book from the authors.

Explanations are clear and concise which make the concepts covered in this book so much easier to mentally process which is good because at least some of the ideas will impact the way you view and play Poker.
